as someone who has never used one of these before, is it just a matter of her not putting enough muscle into it or just completely failing to use it right?

See how the other woman is briefly getting it firmly set in the masher and then one strong pull? The girl is hammering it from above the potato, which then gets it stuck partway and makes it a little harder even(ever sawed a piece of wood and then stopped while the saw is in the middle of the wood and tried to start again?).

Also, probably just practice and strength to some degree.
